    We already know that isn't the case, unless everyone from ownership on down is repeatedly lying about their approach to the luxury tax.
  2. Irrelevant Dude
    Because presumably they like one better than the other, in which case I'm not opposed to making sure they get the specific guy they want and not whoever is left.

    If Atlanta is interested in him, I think their 3rd and a flip of the 8/9 picks in the first round would do it.
  4. Irrelevant Dude
    Well, the defense picked the play so what can you do?

    I don't think this is the way the Bears will or should go, but is it possible they: - Stick with Eberflus for next year - Stick with Fields for next year and give him one more chance with some more weapons - Trade down from the #1 pick for more assets including more picks this year and at least another 1st next year. All this with the understanding that, if the Bears aren't good again next year, they will be picking fairly high in the draft again, plus they will likely have another high pick from whatever team they traded with. So, if the team flops again next season, you can clean the coaching slate completely and use the multiple 1st round picks as ammunition to go up and grab a QB going into the 2025 season. I don't love that idea, and I think we have seen enough of Fields to suggest it is time to move on, but I guess it really comes down to what they think of Caleb Williams. If they aren't completely sold on him, and still have SOME level of confidence that Fields can improve, is it completely crazy to try this one more time with some additional improvements on offense and kick the can down the road on a QB decision?

    When DJ Moore was asked after the game whether the Bears need a new coordinator, his response was: "Ummmmmm...." *Pause* "I think it's fine" That says it all.

    I really wanted to be ok with Fields going forward so the Bears could draft MHJ and accumulate more assets, but that ship has sailed. It is QB or bust at this point. MAYBE they like another QB who would be available at or near 9 and they can still deal back from the #1, but I would think that is unlikely.

    I still agree with what he said. By the letter of the rules, it might not be a penalty... but it is almost always called one.
  9. Irrelevant Dude
    I don't think that's a catch.
  10. Irrelevant Dude
    There is no way Justin Fields sees that to make that throw.
  11. Irrelevant Dude
    Mark Buehrle is working quickly today.
  12. Irrelevant Dude
    Why didn't they snap the ball there? Down by 8 maybe don't run out the clock.
  13. Irrelevant Dude
    Tevon Jenkins has been really good for most of the season, but every time they have showed him today he is either getting beat or not blocking anyone at all.
  14. Irrelevant Dude
    What a huge mistake just to try to get a couple extra yards.
  15. Irrelevant Dude
    Two plays and in field goal range. Defense is getting carved up.
  16. Irrelevant Dude
    Gonna play an entire half of football in less than an hour. Rob Manfred would be proud.
  17. Irrelevant Dude
    "That is a perfectly thrown ball. Maybe a little lower would have been perfect." OK, so it wasn't perfect.
  18. Irrelevant Dude
    Timely praise for Getsy, leading up to a complete blow-up of a playcall.
  19. Irrelevant Dude
    Knowing that the Bears are actually a better team.
  20. Irrelevant Dude
    Jordan Love has the arm strength of a T-Rex.
  21. Irrelevant Dude
    Very possibly. I don't know how a guy can make his reads when he has to look and reach down to pick the ball up.
  22. Irrelevant Dude
    That looked like a Tecmo Super Bowl FG off the upright.
  23. Irrelevant Dude
    The Jets are going to win, giving the Bears a chance to move up to #9 in the draft with a loss today. I have no idea where they end up if they win, but it looks like it might be as low as 13ish? I have a hard time deciding what to root for today, so I guess I'll be happy either way.
  24. Irrelevant Dude
    Would you rather have Wright than Bryce Young straight up? I would say yes. Everything else is gravy, and it's a LOT of gravy.
  25. Irrelevant Dude
    Not that it matters, but Carolina was shut out again and Bryce Young threw for 94 yards. What an absolute disaster.
